Getting to know the photographer behind Shannon's Newborn & Family Photography.
Hi, I'm Shannon — I'm so glad you're here. I was born and raised on the South Shore of Long Island, and I'm raising my own kids here too. This isn't just where I work; it's home. That lifelong connection to Nassau County is a big part of why families trust me with their most fleeting, unrepeatable moments of early parenthood — the tiny fingers, the sleepy newborn stretches, the first birthday cake in a two-year-old's hair.
My approach is calm and unhurried. Newborn sessions move at your baby's pace, family sessions favor genuine connection over stiff posing, and every client leaves with images that actually feel like their family — not a stock photo. Beach family sessions are one of my favorites; growing up here means I know exactly which spots along the South Shore catch the best golden-hour light.
I work from my studio, and I'm equally happy to come to you — your home, a favorite local park, or the beach — anywhere across Nassau County.
